Tactical Thought Process: Why Doing a Proper Search is so Important

Filed under: Tactical Thought Process — Tags: , , — Matt @ 12:06 PM

    What can I say about this video?  I guess you could say, that it is the kind of video that really emphasizes how important attention to detail is, and how important proper procedure is.  It shows you exactly why you want to be extremely thorough in your searches and always watch those hands. I am not a police officer or even a former police officer, but it would seem to me, that the safest bet would have been to clear this guy out in the field first, to find any big stuff or obvious weapons that would have been easy to find in the initial pat down.  I will give the officers credit for being able to jump on the guy, and stop the attack so quick.  But I have to say, “how could this have been avoided?”  The video is a little long, but hang with it.  -Head Jundi

Weapons Stuff: Finding Good Deals on Ammunition

Filed under: Training,Weapons Stuff — Tags: , , , , , — Matt @ 10:27 AM

     This little post will be quick.  A huge part of this industry, is training.  In order to keep your shooting skills sharp, you do a ton of dry firing, but eventually you need to ‘pull some trigger’ and shoot some live stuff.  So how do you find good deals on the ammunition you need?  Well, I have found one answer to that question. 

     At Gun Deals.com , they actually have a section dedicated to searching the web for the best prices on ammunition.  And not only does it do that, but it accepts suggestions from anyone, about where to get the best deals on ammo.  So it is a hybrid search engine of a sorts.  The bottom line, is you just input what ammo you are looking for, and all the current prices for tons of different manufacturers will come up. 

     It is one of those sites, that you could use for last minute purchases, or you could continue to watch it over time, and move in on a good deal when you see it.  There are similar sites out there, and if anyone else has a favorite ammunition deals search engine besides just a plain Google Search or going to a gun show, I am all ears.  -Head Jundi

Weapons Stuff: Custom Selectors for the AK 47

Filed under: Weapons Stuff — Tags: , , , , , — Matt @ 4:55 PM

     In this review, I wanted to talk about the various options for custom selector levers. One of the big drawbacks of the AK 47, is the selector lever. With these two types of selectors that I have listed, and with some modification to your AK, you could have a weapon system that you can switch to ‘fire’ and back to ‘safe’ with your index finger. You will also have the ability to lock the bolt open, which is a nice feature. I would like to hear any other input about selectors out there, and I am by no means an AK expert. And as a disclaimer, please find an armorer to do this modification for you, if you have no knowledge of such things. If you guys have any input on this, fire away. -Head Jundi

FEATURES: MK IV:  While the standard AK selector lever is well designed for the function it performs, it ‘s operation does require the shooter to remove the firing hand from the pistol grip.  The Krebs Custom AK selector lever allows for manipulation of the selector while maintaining the shooting hand in firing position, as well as provides a notch for locking back the bolt for inspection.  A one for one replacement of the OEM part.

Contractors are here to stay

By Florence Olsen
Published on April 14, 2008
When presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) declared in 2007 that she would eliminate 500,000 federal contractors if elected president, some policy experts said she couldn’t do it. One of those experts was Steven Schooner, senior associate dean of academic affairs and associate professor of law at George Washington University. 

Whether the federal government relies too much on contractors is an interesting — but irrelevant — philosophical, public policy and moral question, Schooner said in an interview.

“The reason it is irrelevant is we have engaged now for more than a generation in a bipartisan legislative and executive effort to create the appearance of a small government,” Schooner said. “We all know that government hasn’t gotten smaller.” (more…)
